Chapter 62: Join the Fire Moth!

The third Honkai was like a turning point in the world, causing everyone's fate to begin to change and head towards the end.

The outside world was already in an uproar. Ryan sat on the hospital bed and flipped through several TV channels. Apart from the speeches of leaders, there were scenes of people demonstrating.

Some were seeking accountability, some were saying the government was lying, some were busy taking advantage of the situation and then physically engaging in cordial exchanges with the riot police.

This is not surprising, or perhaps it is just the instinctive reaction of human beings. It is useless to explain it with ten thousand words. We can only wait for time to heal everything.

From anger to numbness, and then from numbness to despair, this is just the beginning, and despair is still to come.

Ryan turned off the TV, sat up a little, tapped his fingers on the headboard, and began to think about the future.

"After the third Honkai, the conspiracy above has been accomplished. From now on, no force will jump out to stop it."

This is a good thing. Although the Fire Moths are full of evil spirits, they are the only organization that can unite all of humanity to fight against the Honkai. Ryan actually thought about setting up his own organization before, but gave up on the idea.

That would require astronomical amounts of money and supplies, and official support. Apart from anything else, just dealing with the Third Herrscher fleet was not something that one person could produce, and Ryan didn't have the energy to manage an organization.

Therefore, the Fire Moth must exist, at least I have to rely on this power. Whether it is Mei or Mobius, they both need massive amounts of materials and tens of thousands of researchers as assistants, so that they can produce research results.

Modern society is highly coordinated and has tens of millions of research directions. Unless the star god comes in person, it cannot be supported by a few heroes.

"But the Fire Moth is also quite troublesome. Even I don't understand the factions within it, and I don't want to become a knife that can be sacrificed at any time."

Ryan eyes gradually turned cold. This time, the encounter with Da Que Da De was really unforgettable. If he and Elysia failed to defeat the Herrscher, they would have to prepare to be hit by a tactical nuclear bomb together.

The impact of the Honkai is gradually deepening, and Ryan has a vague desire to cleanse the Fire Moth, then go public through a backdoor listing, and fight against the Honkai according to his own ideas.

The thought flashed through his mind, but he quickly rejected it.

"It's not time yet. The Fire Moth is still powerful and useful. Besides, the plate is too big. I don't have the stomach to eat it all. If things go wrong, there will be a civil war among humans, and the Honkai will be hilarious."

The Thirteen Flame-Chasers are nowhere to be seen, and he can influence no more than ten people. Even Mobius and Elysia are unlikely to go crazy with him. At this stage, he still has to rely on the big tree of Fire Moth and develop silently.

At least, I have obtained the authority of the third Herrscher. It's a pity that I can't use it instinctively like the Herrscher can, so I need to study it slowly.

Ryan spread his fingers, and purple arcs of electricity jumped in his palms. This was his biggest gain, because as long as he had the foundation, it would be easy to grope forward.

"The authority cannot be exposed, otherwise those people above me will kill me."

He was well aware of the danger of this reward. You know, stealing power is simply unthinkable. Once you have '1', greed will yearn for '2'. There is already a 'believer' among the top leaders who believe that the Herrscher is the ultimate evolutionary goal of mankind.

The laboratory is my final destination, but now that I have the ability, I can't just not use it.

Ryan got a headache and rubbed his swollen temples. He was not afraid of making the world his enemy, but Kevin, Mei, Su, Hua and even Mobius would all be in trouble. There was really no need to fall out.

We have to find a way to use this authority reasonably without arousing suspicion.

This question was a bit confusing and there was no answer for a long time, so Ryan was too lazy to dwell on it and took a pen and paper to scribble on it.

1000HW, this is the strength of his Honkai energy now. To be honest, it is a bit unreasonable to kill a Herrscher and only increase it by 300HW, but he has gotten used to it over the years.

The Honkai energy is already a 'known number' for destiny. The only difference is the distance to the truth. It is not really a new thing. Instead, the power belongs to the unknown. He took it all in his hands and then slowly analyzed and explored it.

Ryan enjoyed the process of exploring the unknown, just like a scumbag who preferred new things, so he had little interest in hunting Honkai beasts everywhere. It was just that the authority required Honkai energy to activate, so he had to run to accumulate "magic power".

"The authority of each Herrscher is different, so the degree of weakening should be relatively small, because specifically, each authority is unknown."

He bit the tip of his pen, and was eager to find the Fourth Ruler to verify his conjecture, but when his thoughts started to diverge, they suddenly froze.

The Outsider...

These words of the Third Herrscher before his death were like a thorn in his heart, always making him uneasy, because in retrospect, saving Kevin and teaching Hua were all part of the butterfly effect, but the wings were not strong enough after all.

It can be said that if he had not appeared, most of these people would not have died, just like a nun who can see the future but cannot change it.

But the matter of the third Herrscher was like a hurricane. Ryan deeply intervened in the world line and even touched the Herrscher core with his own hands and saw an ominous picture.

According to Honkai experts, Honkai is targeted. It won't be deliberately targeted because of my appearance, so how should it be targeted?

Ryan didn't have an answer to this question, and he couldn't think of an answer at all. But he was neither afraid nor regretful. Instead, he was extremely excited.

Today is such a great day, encountering so many 'unknowns'.

He hummed softly. If Hua heard it, he would probably think Ryan was crazy. A normal person could not understand the pursuit of a destiny walker.

But before he could sing two lines, Ryan frowned again and looked towards the door.

Leather shoes tapped lightly on the steel corridor. Hearing the sound, Ryan guessed who was coming. He used the Honkai energy to turn the white paper in his hand into nothingness, then climbed up from the bed and sat on the chair next to him.

As soon as I sat down, the half-open door was pushed open. The attending physician walked in front, and there was a blond and blue-eyed man behind him.

Calis walked in with an elegant smile, while Ryan had a blank expression. Firstly, he was a little unhappy with Changkong matter. He could understand but not agree with it. Secondly, this guy...

He looks a bit like a certain bishop, which makes people feel wary when they see him.

"Dr. Ryan, you should rest more." Calis noticed the unhappiness but still smiled.

"I guess you are here to convey orders from above, Mr. Chief of Staff." Ryan had a stern face, somewhat similar to Hua expression.

"Yes, but first I have to apologize." Calis bowed gracefully and said with a smile: "The honor of defeating the Third Herrscher cannot be placed on you. This is a joint decision of the Fire Chaser Council."

Ryan showed a hint of sarcasm and sneered, "I expected that victory should be achieved by humans, and two monsters should not be heroes. But I am curious, what is your definition of a monster."

"Is it enough to define you as possessing incomprehensible and terrifying power? Some people in the organization even think that you are no different from Herrscher."

It was a very honest and rational answer, and Ryan did not refute it. In fact, the definition of a Herrscher was vague. The most basic definition was an existence that could control Honkai energy.

"I don't care about honor, even if it's a little unpleasant."

"The honor is for sure. For example, without you, things would have been very difficult to resolve. This is the latest intelligence sent by the technical department."

Ryan took it and looked at it, his pupils shrinking slightly: "There is another Judgment level Honkai beast? It chose to escape after the failure of the Third Herrscher?"

"Yes, luckily you guys solved it quickly, otherwise once they were together, it would be disastrous."

Ryan took a deep breath. This was certain. He had not expected that Changkong could gather a Herrscher, an Emperor level Honkai Beast, and a Judgment level Honkai Beast. He had not expected that this Judgment level beast named 'Sesa' would be so decisive.

It's fine as long as it's moistened. He waved his hand and said coldly: "But this is just a trivial matter, so you don't have to make a trip in person."

"Yes, the main problem is that you made a big fuss this time, so the higher-ups decided to let you come out in the open. From now on, the crusade will be taken over by other people." Calis sat down on a stool with a helpless smile: "This way, both sides can have a way out."

In fact, Ryan had withdrawn from those jobs a long time ago. The top management could neither force him nor dare to clean him up, so they just let it hang. This incident was a wake-up call for them.

Although he was assisted by Elysia and the army, the Third Herrscher actually died at the hands of this man. With such overwhelming power, humans could defeat him but could not stop him.

Ryan can kill anyone if he wants, regardless of the consequences.

"Is this an order or a request?" Ryan slowly leaned back, his face showing no emotion.

"A little bit of both, but for me personally, this is a request. You and Ms. Elysia are both rare talents." Calis leaned forward and said word by word: "The Third Herrscher is just the beginning. Humans must change themselves if they want to survive. I fully support Dr. Mobius plan. As long as this heart still has feelings and instincts, it can be called a new human."

The new humans are okay.

Ryan couldn't figure out the man in front of him, but after thinking about it, he decided that joining the Fire Moth was the trend of the times. The world had changed and he would not be allowed to act freely. Moreover, with an official identity, it would be more convenient for him to act.

"I have a few requests."

"you say."

"First, I want to have a high degree of freedom and the right to refuse orders. Of course, I will not avoid the Honkai."

"That's no problem. You are not just a combatant. It would be a waste to send you to the front line to fight for your life." Calis nodded with a smile, obviously getting the relevant information from Mobius.

"Second, I am not worthy of belonging to any unit and am directly under the jurisdiction of the Fire Chasing Council."

"Of course, we will give you the same treatment as Miss Elysia."

"Third, please stop questioning my abilities. I don't have time to deal with endless investigations."

This time, Calis hesitated for a moment, then smiled wryly and replied, "I personally give you this guarantee."

Seeing his look, Ryan snorted softly. It seemed that the little geniuses above definitely didn't know how to write the three words "clinging to someone powerful" unless they were about to die.

"Any questions?"

"Not for now." Ryan knew when to stop. He was not the kind of person who would take advantage of others. He just remembered another thing.

"Please pay attention to that 'Cocoon'. I don't want to destroy the potential power that can resist the Honkai."

"Are you also afraid of 'Owl' who is known as the king of assassins? According to the ranking in their world, you are not much weaker, Lord Bloody Hand." Calis still had that elegant smile on his face, but after looking at it for too long, it was hard not to feel fake.

Scared? Well, I was a little scared before. After all, assassination is not a real fight, and this assassin king must have special abilities like Aponia. But the name is too childish, so I am not interested.

"Do you think I'm afraid? Or is he more powerful than the Herrscher?" Ryan eyes sharpened, and he said calmly, "People like him shouldn't die at the hands of their own kind."

"I agree. Okay, then I will report back to the parliament immediately and enter your information. I will have someone bring you the relevant documents." Calis stood up and saluted, then turned and left, closing the door.

These people are really pragmatists as they come to visit the sick without bringing any gifts of condolence.

Ryan shook his head and slowly lay down on the bed. His injuries had actually healed, so he took this opportunity to rest and think. But as soon as he closed his eyes, his eyebrows frowned.

Why are there so many visitors today?

He heard brisk footsteps and a smiling voice greeting the doctor. He turned around and saw Elysia coming with a bunch of gifts.
